Hmmm... it seems like this could have been avoided.

So a worker, legally picketing, during a legal strike, dies in a tragic accident. The blame is on his surviving co-workers? Where is the logic in that? What should they have done to prevent it?

Who said anything about coworkers?

Who do you think told him to pick up a sign?

Two words: union boss.

Clearly you've never been in a Union. You have no clue what a Union is. I've walked a lot of picket lines, with my own Union and with other Unions. I've carried a lot of picket signs and no one ever told me to do it.

No body ever told me to lay down under the wheels of a bus full of scabs to prevent it crossing the picket line. The cops arrested me and beat me up for it, but no scabs got in that day. The cops made the driver turn back.

You heard it here first: cops are in bed with organized crime.

Oh, if you just strike because you wanted to, what are the chances everyone else decided to do so as well? What are the chances?

So ignorant. Your local told you that you were on strike and you fell in line just like everyone else.

I have never in my life been on strike. Not even for one day.

I was just going to post this:

You beat me to it..

[Turkeytop]

The most violent thing I ever did on the picket line was shove back at a cop who had shoved me. It was an honest mistake. I thought he was a security guard. They all dress alike.

The cop accepted my explanation and ordered all the goons to get back inside the Plant gate where they belonged.

Ever do plumbing?

The only sewage he comes in contact with is the stuff that hasn't made it into the system yet.
